Mi Notebook Air 12.5 vs 13.3 Side by Side Specs Comparison
We have posted an article about key features and specs about Xiaomi laptop known as Mi Notebook Air. Unfortunately, some people told me that they are still confused spotting in which area the discrepancies of those two laptops. We are really sure that you will firstly spot the difference on the size of its display screen. However, there are a numbers of differences between Mi Notebook 13.3″ and 12.5″ including its processor, GPU, as well as memory capacity or RAM. Luckily, a super moderator of MIUI community known as Sepneela has shared a nice side-by-side specs comparison in a readable table. We have modified the table a little bit by formatting the different parts in bold so you can easily spot in which parts these two laptops are different.
